I have no luck with women and I believe that's just the cards I'm dealt. So I've given up on finding a GF. I thought i was decent looking with a good personality until i became single again and haven't had luck since. Honestly though, all I want to do is start bed hopping and sleeping around. I think that will fill the void. Seriously.

I have no moral judgments, but sleeping around won't fill the hole in your heart.......


Just sayin.........

I'm in my early 20's and I have given up on finding finding love, but the most part is I am unattractive to men being that I am a bigger women. I learned at young age scientifically men aren't attracted to women who don't look healthy and factor in what pop culture shoves down our throats its a no win situation for me. I have attempted to date and every time time I got the courage to step out there I get an arrow in the heart and now I don't even have the urge to feel anything for a man not that any are stopping me on the street. I go out with my friends every weekend and they get so much attention and I am invisible and I only get attention is if said guy needs intel on one of my friends. I don't mind since it makes my friends happy but it sucks being the DUFF. My last effort was joining a dating website where men were looking for women that were overweight like myself, I got many messages but when I would message with them for a while they would go ghost, but I actually met and hung out with 2 guys, one never contacted me again the other wanted to keep me a secret. I took a step back, deleted all dating site accounts, and realized relationships just aren't meant for me, and some people find love and some don't. I decided to take myself out of the uncertainty equation, I have never been in love so I am not 100 percent sure of what im missing but I just don't think its worth the risk it once was. It bums me out sometimes, but I am really looking forward being a single mom in the future.

I'm in my upper 40s, and I can't understand why so many American women seem to feel the way you do. It's just so sad. Is it because US culture sends a relentless stream of negative messages to women over the age of 35? I've concluded that North America must be one of the worst places on the planet for women socially, and I really mean that. But I refuse to internalize all the negativity.

Perhaps you could find a mentor, so to speak, in a happy, confident, engaged, physically active woman older than you who might inspire you to fight all the negative talk that American women hear.
I think it's because older women are attacked. Look at posts here where men bash older women and dating sites where men want younger.

Actually, based on my observations, you really can't get much better than the US for women in terms of social status. It's one of the worst places to be as a man though.

Get some perspective........

Saying what you said is beyond silly.... I mean really, are you like 19 or so???

America, along with most of the western world is a great place to be a man... to say otherwise is foolishness....

Yes...as a woman, I could roll out of bed with curlers in my hair and walk down to the corner store in my PJs and still get laid. GET LAID. GET LAID. Get...laid. Read it again. Get...laid.

Getting laid is NOT..NOT....a relationship!!! It means nothing!! Finding someone to be there for you, hold you, laugh with you, love you...THAT is just as hard for women as it is for men.

What the hell is so great about finding a dude that will crawl all over you for 3 minutes and then be ready to leave and go have a beer with his buds until the next time he wants to crawl all over you? Yeah....cause that's what women want. (please note the sarcasm)

As a woman, I know that I am looking for a TRUE, long term relationship..and hopefully one day marriage.
Tell me how easier THAT is find for a woman! SEX....yes. RELATIONSHIP....no!!

So for the love of GOD please quit saying women have it easier.

So how do you really feel?
In all fairness though not every single woman wants a commited relationship either, it's not just men who act that way. I've met a few over the years. In addition, I've found many women my age prefer to keep things really casual and would rather not jump into a serious commitment after getting out of not so good marriages.

I've long since said the same thing on CD multiple times, women have it easier initially, after that the cards are about the same amongst the sexes....
